Different packages make different problems also need different solutions. Some packages can't be updated if they need newer glib or build tools.
For some packages you need newer
gcc
look for AapoRantalainen contributions he did a very good job in updating some important bits. For using a newer gcc you need to make a new target in scratchbox.
Also marmistrz was updating for example
autoconf
. If you want to use newer build tools as provided by the sdk you need to set the SBOX_REDIRECT_IGNORE variable which you also need to use newer perl.
You could also set a new scratchbox target for the CSSU repositority which has also some newer packages than the standard sdk.
To update to latest stuff we need to free maemo to have a new kernel and newer glibc. Then we can have latest build tools and gcc. So Android_808 and freemangordon do a great job removing closed blobs.
You could upload your source codes and I can have a look into it and try to compile deb packages from it.
